Regular movies don't play on dome imax's I don't believ. All imax's I've been to are in your face screen and awesome sound, way beyond theater. If we go to chantilly one it was actually in the movie. The chantilly air and space museum was in the movie transformers 2.

yeah man, i'll def take the resonator off your hands. It's dynomax, right? How long have you had it? I was reading in the other thread that they only last about 3 years... anyone know if that's true? Any recommendations on where to get it done at? Quantico said they will "help" put a new one in, but i have to cut the old one out and pre-fab it... not sure if i'm ready for all that.

Well we had front bumper off and the front wheels off. it took 4 of use on that breaker bar to brake that nut loose. although after talking with alex after it was all said and done he said we should have heated the thing up and it would have come out alot easier... lol. when it broke loose it POPPED. i thought we broke something but it was just the nut.

is it worth it? definitely. although we did a bunch of mods at the same time and there was a big boost in power, the pulley definitely helped in that.

Thanks Mel. yeah the car is totally different now.

The exhaust.... i love the sound but the drone is a bit much. on the way to work it wasnt that bad but i had my music pretty high. if it settles down a few db then i'll be happy. hopefully i wont need to put in the res or mid muffler. it sounds louder then the ATLP i heard and the ATLP is supposed to be louder... so im thinking once it settles it should be fine. we shall see.
